ALL-PURPOSE 8"
TWO-WAY COMPACT
LOUDSPEAKER
SYSTEM
The Klipsch CA-8T compact full range
system is perfect for higher power pro-
fessional applications where flexible
mounting and extended range are
re q u i r ed, including everything needed
for fast and easy distributed sound
installations. Equally at home indoors
or out, in fore g r ound or backgro u n d ,
higher S P Lapplications, the CA-8T’s
appearance and Klipsch fidelity fit into
residential, business or re c re a t i o n a l
e n v i r onments equally well.
The UV- and weather- r esistant A B S
e n c l o s u r e includes an internal multi-
tap transformer with switchable dire c t
8 ohm bypass, simplifying hookup to
any type of sound system. The C-
bracket assembly attaches to the enclo-
s u r e’s integral stainless steel thre a d e d
studs with oversized knobs, ensuring
a positive position-lock and rapid "no-
pain" installation. External attachment
to the built-in security retainer pro-
vides an extra measure of safety,
p r otecting against unexpected
damage or re m o v a l .
The CA-8T includes a high power 8"
extended range low-frequency driver
and a 1" titanium diaphragm compre s-
sion driver on a molded Tractrix Horn.
The 90º x 60º horn and driver assem-
bly allows repositioning by 90º for
selectable pattern contro l .
The compact dual port bass re f l e x
loudspeaker system can handle 100
watts continuous power for an A E S
sensitivity of 96dB and a maximum
output of 113dB S P L .
Paintable and available in black or
white finishes, the ABS enclosure
f e a t u r es corrosion- and ru s t - re s i s t a n t
stainless steel hard w a r e and a re m o v -
able aluminum powder-coated grille,
ensuring maintenance-free service in
any environment or application.
Whether indoors or out, the Klipsch
CA-8T is the good looking, gre a t
sounding full-range solution for
installed high-fidelity sound.
